Abstract
A new method of fabrication of metal tips using an oxygen/argon plasma has been developed and the tips have been formed and tested in a magnetron sputtering diode. The tip cones obtained were quite uniform, with the height of the tips about 100-150 micron or 300-500 micron. The method may be applied for increasing the FEA reliability
